c. 1 in 2 for combined structural engineering and planting solutions.
Stormwater Drainage
83. Appropriate scour protection must be provided at the outlet of all stormwater pipes including
temporary outlets.
84. Works associated with this permit must not adversely impact on the existing drainage
conditions on other properties (e.g. by blocking or interfering with natural overland flows).
85. Construction of all internal stormwater drainage works must comply with the relevant
section/s of Australian Standard AS/NZS 3500.3.
86. For the length of stormwater line being installed under the existing Pearl St pavement, the
trench reinstatement works must be generally in accordance with Councils standard drawing
RS-170.
Bioretention Basins - Construction
87. During construction and establishment of the bioretention devices, the supervising RPEQ
must ensure that the device was constructed in accordance with the document Construction
and Establishment Guidelines: Swales, Bioretention Systems and Wetlands (Water by
Design, 2009) and that the forms contained in section 3.15 including the associated
supporting information and data are completed. These forms and certification from the RPEQ
that the device has been constructed in accordance with the Construction and Establishment
Guidelines: Swales, Bioretention Systems and Wetlands (Water by Design, 2009), all
conditions of approval, and the approved engineering drawings must be submitted to Council
prior to commencement of use.
88. Where the bioretention filter media interfaces with stormwater pits and retaining walls non-
woven geotextile shall be fixed to the pit / retaining wall and extend 300mm out into the filter
media generally in accordance with IPWEAQ Standard Drawing No. DS-070 to prevent
tunnelling of water along the interface.
89. Prior to issuing of a final compliance certificate, Council must receive evidence that the
results for the in-situ hydraulic conductivity testing conducted in accordance with FAWB
PRACTICE NOTE 1: In Situ Measurement of Hydraulic Conductivity Belinda Hatt, Sebastien
Le Coustumer April 2008 for the bioretention filter media achieve the design criteria.
Erosion and Sediment Control
90. Prescribed Water Contaminants (as defined in Schedule 10 of Environmental Protection
Regulation 2019) must not be released from the site or to waters within the site, or be likely
to be released should rainfall occur, unless all reasonable and practicable measures are
taken to prevent or minimise the release and concentration of contamination.
91. Sediment and erosion control measures must be in place prior to works commencing. If such
measures are not in place or are not satisfactory, “on the spot” fines may be issued. Such
fines can be issued if sediments from the site are found to enter or have the potential to enter
Council’s stormwater system, natural waterways, any downstream stormwater filtration
system or adversely impacting on other properties. The sediment and erosion control design
and measures have NOT been approved, it is the site's Supervising Engineer who is
responsible for ensuring that the sediment and erosion control measures have:
a. Been duly designed by an RPEQ or CPESC and constructed in accordance with "best
practise" methods,
b. Been revised by an RPEQ or CPESC to address the issues raised by changes in the
projected construction schedule and/or methods,
c. Been revised to address predicted rainfall events, and
d. Achieve the desired environmental outcomes.
Council may request further controls to be installed should the implemented measures be
found inefficient.
